Mobile Computing Charging the main battery 61 NOTE Depending on your system, the RTC battery may only charge while the device is turned on. To recharge the RTC battery, plug the device into a live electrical outlet and leave the device powered on for 24 hours. NOTE It is seldom necessary to charge the RTC battery because it charges while the device is on. If the RTC battery is low, the real-time clock and calendar may display the incorrect time and date or stop working. When the RTC battery is completely discharged, a warning prompts you to reset the real-time clock. The device can be used while the RTC battery is being charged, although the charging status of the RTC battery cannot be monitored. Determining remaining battery power NOTE Wait a few moments after turning on the device before trying to monitor the remaining battery power. The device needs this time to check the battery's remaining capacity and perform its calculations. Click or touch the Power icon in the notification area, see "Finding your way around the desktop" on page 69 for more information on the notification area. A pop-up message displays the remaining battery power as a percentage. With repeated discharges and recharges, the battery's capacity gradually decreases. A frequently used older battery does not power the device for as long as a new battery, even when both are fully charged. TECHNICAL NOTE: The device drains the battery faster at low temperatures. Check your remaining charge frequently if you are working in temperatures below 50 degrees Fahrenheit. The device calculates the remaining battery charge based on your current rate of power use and other factors such as the age of the battery.
